Lego Fortnite fast travel isn’t a thing, both in the video game sense of instantly transporting yourself somewhere or in the normal sense of just moving kinda quickly. That makes moving around in Lego Fortnite’s vast open world a bit of a chore, but some clever players figured out a way to pick up the pace.

They built cars, planes, some flying fortresses, and one or two creations that probably don’t fit into any known category.

That’s all in the spirit of Lego, you might say, but the impressive part about this is that Lego Fortnite actually has pretty strict limits on what you can build and how it works. For starters, there are no blueprints for building cars or vehicles of any kind. Compounding the challenge is a quirk with Lego Fortnite blocks that means they don’t always function the way you might expect. If you slap some wheels on a basic block, they aren’t going to turn.

The foundation for these creations is dynamic – literally. It’s called the Dynamic Foundation block, named for how it interacts with other blocks in ways that most building materials in the game don’t. You can stick some balloons on it to create a floating platform or attach wheels to form a basic car.

YouTuber Zzyinc made what looks like a hybrid tank-car combo with a small hut on the front. Another creator just stuck some rockets on the foundation and went flying off into the sunset.

TikTok user Scuba tried using a thruster-balloon combination to make a large plane, though steering the flying contraption wasn’t the easiest task.

Speaking of flying, my favorite creation has to be this one, from Reddit user Peruunaa. It’s a complex build with multiple platforms, several thrusters, and some clever use of switches to control propulsion.

Lego Fortnite doesn’t have steering wheels, so they placed their plane’s thrusters and switches in a pattern that meant they could toggle them on and off to control the airship’s direction.

Most of the materials these creations require, including flexwood, only become available as you make a fair bit of progress in a survival run, so expect to spend a lot of time on your little Lego feet before you can start building contraptions like this yourself.

Getting the Lego Fortnite flexwood material is a pretty lengthy process compared to harvesting the open-world game’s other necessary items – and flexwood definitely is necessary. You need it for crafting high-level weapons, better tools, and even the health charms that keep you going in the face of rollers and other powerful enemies. Getting it requires some additional upgrades first, though, and a long trek into the dusty wilderness.

Our Lego Fortnite flexwood guide points out where to look and how to get all of it that you’ll need.

If you want to upgrade your village and pretty much everything else in Epic’s new blocky builder, you’ll need plenty of the Lego Fortnite marble material. Marble is one of the more challenging building materials to find, since, unlike granite – and marble’s real-life counterpart – you can’t actually just hew it out of the rocks. You have to hunt down specific locations in one of Lego Fortnite’s open-world biomes. On the bright side, it’s a pretty easy biome to find, since you almost always start there.
